Here's why: Back in November, while trying to protect Justin, Kenny shoved a photographer who was trying to snap Justin's pic while he was exiting his hotel. The photographer was sent to the hospital with minor injuries and is fine now.

The reason Kenny was just arrested is because New York police had been unable to locate Kenny until Wednesday, when he accompanied Justin to the premiere of his movie, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never. Kenny was given a desk appearance ticket which requires him to appear in criminal court on a date yet to be set.

J-14 was at the NYC premiere and we can tell you that there were a bunch of cops by the theater, but no one suspected that anything was wrong.
